PSHE
Aimed at: teachers Assess your own attitude to PSHE and access some of the resources used by Exeter University's PGCE course on this site of the Schools Health Education Unit.
http://www.sheu.org.uk/sheu.htm
Brain Pop - Health: Aimed at: KS3 Engaging US movie shorts about health concerns for adolescents (inc acne and periods) as well as more general aspects of human biology. Samaritans
http://www.brainpop.com/health/seeall.weml
Samaritans: Aimed at: everyone Includes the Samaritans Youth Pack for schools, statistics on suicide, and an engrossing survey of young men's attitudes towards their own distress. The latter is free but available only by post. Some material is also in Welsh.
http://www.samaritans.org

Generation Sex Aimed at: teenagers Flashy new site from Channel 4 with a question-and-answer service that visitors can browse: some are quite explicit and might worry more conservative teachers and parents. The ABC of Sex is a good reference for queries about particular words, and there is a strong section for girls who have had unprotected sex. See also the government's MindBodySoul website for PSHE
(http://www.mindbodysoul.gov.uk). http://gensex.channel4.com
DrugScope Aimed at: everyone Formerly the Institute for the Study of Drugs Dependence and the Standing Conference on Drug Abuse, DrugScope has a large education section and an online drugs encyclopaedia of considerable depth. http://www.drugscope.org.uk
The Red Spot Aimed at: everyone Subtitled Menstrual Culture, this site examines the physiological, historical and emotional aspects of the subject in an entertaining, intelligent way. Very helpful for anyone giving a talk.
http://151.196.212.171/redspot

Police Services UK Aimed at: everyone Every police force has its own website, and those of the Met and West Yorkshire Police are particularly interesting. They could prove useful if you want to engage pupils' interest by looking at the role of the local police. http://www.police.co.uk

Smoking and Health Aimed at: everyone ASH has a dedicated schools section. It does not patronise its audience and nor condemn smokers outright. Could be easier to use with KS4 students?
http://www.ash.org.uk

AIDSmap Aimed at: everyone Links to a variety of research and resources on Aids. http://www.aidsmap.com

Alcohol Concern Aimed at: everyone Probably its most useful feature are the fact-sheets on alcohol covering, among other topics, women's drinking and the scale of consumption. http://www.alcoholconcern.org.uk
